Abstract

India recently adopted a three-tier governance architecture to achieve effective and efficient management. Municipal Corporations are one of them, and they play a significant role in city growth. The goal of this study was to look at the revenue and spending sources of the Firozabad Municipal Corporations in Maharashtra. This study is based on the financial statements of Firozabad Municipal Corporation. Based on an analysis of Firozabad Municipal Corporation’s four-year financial records, researchers determined that operations and maintenance expenditures have consistently grown, while Municipal Corporation total earnings have not increased in the same proportion. Municipal Corporations must diversify their revenue streams while reducing operating and maintenance costs in order to maximize profitability.
